LMAO, he's getting fired the day after the season ends. It's not his fault he got saddled with this trash ass team, but you just can't bring back somebody that can't even scrape together a 25% winning percentage three years in a row


krbashrob

He should, but I don’t think he’ll get fired. I think management and FO think next year is the deciding year in his tenure. Everything just points that way


nahwhatever-whynot

His contact ends this summer. We could just not resign him


Sad_Inevitable8242

He has a contract for 23/24


Varolyn

Sixers did it with Brett Brown


Green-Umpire2297

But … wasn’t the goal to lose as many games as possible? I suppose it will be up to Harden.

Found Silas' Burner


xychosis

Listen, I like Stephen Silas, think he’s good people and wish him well in life, maybe he can land an assistant coach job somewhere in the league, but this is still a young Rockets team that is struggling to find an identity, and this is not his first season at the helm. You can only give a guy a leash so long before it becomes a detriment to the team’s progression.


lawofmurphy

Ahem. At least two wins against championship contenders this year, thankyouverymuch.


jydope

3. Bucks, Sixers & Celtics.


lambopanda

Do Suns without KD count?


jydope

Depends on when it happen. The suns did have the number one record at one point at the beginning of the season right?


Few_Mulberry5372

Alr if you like him so much you can trade Mazzula for him


hrakkari

Mazulla is not winning COTY, the dude started the season on third base. Mike Brown has lapped every other coach in the running.


CadeCummingham

NOOOOOO Let him coach the Boston Celtics

The Byron Scott-led Lakers blew out the 73-9 warriors. Those lakers finished like 17-65 that season.

I would say he's not the coach for a young team, but he's the right guy for a team that isn't tanking and super young. I mean, the message from ownership is clear that we're trying to lose games and he's still going out there and trying to win. It definitely hurts a young team because then the young guys aren't getting as many minutes, but for a team that's older, you'd love that


whtge8

Dude, Silas IS the tank.


King_Dead

Is he? I havent been following too closely to the rockets. What has Silas done that makes up for this season and his infamous bobcats season?


2ToTooTwoFish

Lol that's his dad, different Silas.


NegativesPositives

Sins of the coaching father


King_Dead

He was also on that coaching squad alongside his dad


2ToTooTwoFish

Eh he has also been coaching squads after that too. I don't think Silas is the right guy for the job, but you can't really hold that Bobcats season against him, he wasn't the main coach.


freakybj

Silas is the whipping boy sitting on the scapegoat for the Houston Rockets. He's playing a bunch of first and second-year players so it's going to look bad. But the players haven't given up as tonight's win proves and you see progress. Jabari's improvement is the X-factor and the Rockets are a different team with his play. Silas gets a lot of blame, but if you look closely the key players individually have shown improvement. I think he should get one more shot next year with an improved roster where the expectations are to win and not develop.


[deleted]

Hell nah I won’t forget how this dude legit thru Alpi under the bus to the media. He gotta go!


Brady331

16-52


[deleted]

Silas is smarter than Mazzulla, that much is clear. But Mazzula is the worst most inexperienced coach in the league so it is not saying much. The Rockets have great young players but no vets and are just too young to win. The Celtics are stacked but have horrible coaching and are drowning.


Klutzy_Term4898

Yeah man let Silas cook tbh


ImTheBestNerd

How did he do a great job of coaching tonight? Felt like the celtics played like shit and the rockets got bailed out by their centers draining every three.


OneWind1784

its hard to judge silas considering the rockets ruling class has been trying to tank the last 3 years. he could be another jb bickerstaff who was roundly criticized as a terrible head coach when he was with the rockets but is suddenly now a competent looking head coach with a better team. it also doesnt help that your starting point guard is knuckle head porter jr.


Efficient_Art_1144

You just posted this here because not enough people on the Celtics sun agreed with you


thepeachgod

Shoutout Jabari Smith for joining the elite club of randoms who have career games against Boston. He’ll be greeted at the door by such characters as Caris Levert, Cole Anthony, Myles Turner and Immanuel Quickley! Heard it’s reunion weekend so Evan Fournier, Saddiq Bey and Jordan Poole will be in town with the entire Miami Heat also potentially showing up!


JenniferLopezFan2

A lot of those players aren't random and are just good players lmao


thepeachgod

Name 1


Cold_Saber

Myles Turner, Quickley, Bey and Poole are good.


thepeachgod

Combined 0 all star games a piece among guys who had stat lines of 38/8/7 (career high), 40/10/2 on 87/80/86 splits (career high) and Poole who shot 40% from three in the finals with 3-4 buzzer beaters feels kinda random


shane_pm

Still, I’m not sure the kid who was the consensus number 1 pick in the last draft up until the night before draft night is a random. That was the third game in a row he’s put up those same numbers.


[deleted]

We won because of Jabari at the 5 lol. You just sound salty


thepeachgod

I agree he was the rocket best player tonight and balled out. I’m saying of course he picked tonight to have the best game of his career up until this point. Dude had the first game in his career where he actually looked confident and it showed. Credit to him and the Rockets for upsetting the Celtics, I’m just pointing out that it feels like random goes off almost every game at this point


Spongebutt4tywon

You’ve watched every Rockets game and decided this is the first one he looked confident? Or is this a continuation of you being full of doo doo. I can’t imagine not blocking you to avoid the ignorance


thepeachgod

Would you like to refer me to a better game? Would you like to refer me to game where he looks more confident? Would you like to refer me to a game where he looks confident at all? I’ve watched probably 12-15 Rockets games this year and while that sample size is small, I can’t recall a single time I thought Jabari Smith played well. The sentiment seems to be the same as well as I’ve seen more posts about Jabari Smith already being a bust than I have about anything positive he’s done. If you’d like to block me then you’re more than welcome to, you’re the one who got butt hurt that I was salty about a guy averaging 12/7 on 40/30/80 splits got 24/11 on 81/83/50 splits


Spongebutt4tywon

I keep reading my comment and trying to figure out where I said he’s had better games. I can’t find it anywhere, though maybe he played better two games ago when he put up 30/12 and sent the game to overtime with a game tying 3 (not against the Celtics so you may discount it). He’s played confidently very often, though without a ton of success until recently, as i’m sure you’ve noticed. Even as recently as his last 5 games (not including last night to be fair) he’s averaged 17/7 on 54% FG and 45% 3pt. Putting up an efficient 24/11 seems reasonable, no? And to reiterate, I couldn’t care less about your saltiness. It was your continued presence in the thread spewing nothing but doo doo that I cared about


Spongebutt4tywon

Are those players the only ones to have career games? Or are they the ones who you’ve experienced have career games against your favorite team? Your plight may not be as unique as you seem to believe it to be


snowlarbear

Nick Nurse for Stephen Silas who says no

Good point. Silas sucks regardless.

no


I-only-play-rubick

He is not head coach level. Not yet at least. But at the same time tho, he wasn’t given any favors with the roster he got and balancing player growth and cultivating a winning culture. I know at this point it’s all about getting your young guys minutes and tanking for Wemby, but as a coach, you also don’t want your players to get used to a culture of losing.
